scala> import com.github.nscala_time.time.Implicits._
import com.github.nscala_time.time.Implicits._

scala> new org.joda.time.Interval(0, 1)
res0: org.joda.time.Interval = 1970-01-01T09:00:00.000+09:00/1970-01-01T09:00:00.001+09:00

scala> res0.toDuration.toScalaDuration
res1: scala.concurrent.duration.Duration = 1 millisecond

That doesn't quite get me there, as the API I'm trying to use requires FiniteDuration.

Right now, I'm using time => (DateTime.now() to time).toDurationMillis.millis, with import scala.concurrent.duration._ to get the unit methods. It feels like there should be a way to just drop in the interval I want where w FiniteDuration is expected. Would it be undesirable for this implicit conversion to exist?

toScalaDuration will return FiniteDuration since the next version. https://github.com/nscala-time/nscala-time/pull/106/files
Is it sufficient for you?

That helps out, but it would be useful to have that on Interval too. With toScalaDuration, it still looks like time => (DateTime.now() to time).toDuration.toScalaDuration, which seems overly verbose for what it's trying to accomplish.
